Captivation: Want Nothing But You
Chapter 1403

When Hector looked up and found them still standing in the same position, he got furious.

“Didn’t you hear me? Or do you just Lack what to do with your time?”

“Okay, Mr.

Brown, we’re leaving.

But if there is ever any problem, don’t hesitate to call us, and we’ll be there.”

Hector just sighed and waved his hand in dismissal.

Finally able to breathe normally again, they quickly got into their patrol car and left before Hector changed his mind.

Joey turned off the screen of his watch as he watched the police car drive away.

Hector turned to talk to Joey but saw him turn around and walk towards the house.

“Hey, kid!”

At the same time, Lila, who was cleaning up the dining room, found it odd that she hadn’t heard from Joey for a while.

So she came out and called loudly, “Joey!”

“I’m here!” Joey answered, and then turned back to look at Hector.

Lila stood on her tiptoe to spot him and saw him close to the gate.

She couldn’t see Hector because a tree blocked her view.

As she walked down the stairs, she asked in a worried voice, “Joey, where have you been?”

Scared of being seen, Hector moved behind the tree with the help of his walking stick.

He couldn’t afford to be seen by Lila.

Joey noticed what he was doing and instinctively decided to go along.

He had to say something to stop Lila before she came down and saw

Hector.

He thought about it for a short while and said, “I just wanted to see if Mommy was back.

Don’t bother coming over, I’m coming back in.”

Luckily, Lila stopped on the stairs.

To reassure her, Joey walked toward her with a soft smile.

Seeing him coming, Lila also turned around and walked back in.

Before the little boy could go in, Hector whispered, “Kid, you’re just going to leave?”

“Shouldn’t I?” Joey turned back to him with a puzzled look on his face.

Hector was taken aback for a second.

He was lost for words.

“Aren’t you curious to know why they didn’t arrest me? You accused me of being a human trafficker, right? If you leave like this, how will know the answer

“I already know why,” Joey said with a blank expression.

Once again, Hector was shocked by this young boy.
